What is IVU file?
The file in the IVU format belongs to the Video Files category. The creator of this file is ImmerVision. Additionally, the Video Files category contains 546 of other files. ImmerVision XML User Interface appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use PURE Player to handle this file. This is a program created by ImmerVision.
How to open IVU file?
The most common problem when using ImmerVision XML User Interface is that a specific IVU is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that IVU files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IVU file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install PURE Player
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PURE Player is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing PURE Player into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file IVU with PURE Player. Below you will find a list of applications that support IVU files.
Programs to open IVU file
Remember to download programs supporting IVU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PURE Player with IVU files
If, despite the installed application, the IVU file does not start in the PURE Player application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PURE Player application as the default for handling the IVU file.
Step 3. Update PURE Player to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PURE Player program, it is possible that ImmerVision XML User Interface requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ImmerVision website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IVU file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to IVU files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IVU or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected IVU file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the IVU files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular IVU file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ImmerVision, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file IVU except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move IVU to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the IVU file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
